Despite being nominated for two Golden Globes, Scarlett Johansson went home empty handed. This is probably explainable by vote splitting. Those that voted for her as Best Actress in a Drama were unlikely to vote for her in Best Actress in a Comedy or Musical, and vice versa.

Cold Mountain lead the field with 8 nominations, but was nearly shut out winning just the one award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role. In this case, the lack of wins is probably more quality-related. The reviews simple are not at the level that 8 nominations suggest. And they are much lower than all three multiple award winners.
